Best Oil Cooler
What's the best oil cooler out there, Jag? I'm looking at this as my next mod. Definitely want stainless oil lines with it. If I'm hanging an oil cooler on it, at least the stainless lines will look cool.
Before anyone advises me to change pipes, AC, & and a tuner instead -- it's already been done. I'm looking for an extra edge with an oil cooler because I run around in traffic all the time.

I understand your point about airflow, but I don't' think I want that much complexity. I know it won't work as designed sitting at a traffic light, but an oil cooler increases surface area available for cooling--even with no airflow. Just looking for a little edge to reduce temp, not a magic bullet.

You can lower your temps around 10 degrees using an oil cooler. Basically useless and ugly to look at, not to mention having the need for external oil lines that could be damaged easily. You can gain almost 150 degrees of protection just by using a full SYN oil. There will never be a need to use an oil cooler, even in the hottest days in stand still traffic temps if you use a full SYN..

+1 exactly
That's why I switched to amsoil for the same reason, it runs cooler, never hit 250 in traffic, even the hottest day here.
